Filing an application via the Madrid System is the most efficient way to protect your trademark in multiple countries simultaneously. Service #1214 focuses specifically on the technical and legal process of preparing and submitting the application. This service is ideal for businesses that already have a registered mark in Georgia (or have filed an application) and wish to expand protection. Qualified assistance at this stage is crucial because the WIPO application form (MM2) requires precise classification of goods and services and conformity with the basic mark. Any inaccuracy leads to process delays ("Irregularity") and additional costs.
